Talking About Air Conditioners

Hello, I am Mia Ondalgo. Welcome to my site about air conditioning systems. The first apartment I moved into had air conditioning units in the back windows. The units pumped cool air into the building all throughout the spring and summer. Upon moving into my new home, I was instantly way too hot while dealing with the summer temperatures.
